[comp.sys.atari.st] UniTerm 2.0 question

matthews@umd5.umd.edu (Mike Matthews) (03/23/90)

I'm having some serious problems with Uniterm 2.0e (now 002, also with 009).
The local tie-in I have to the mainframes as, well, gone to h*ll with some
major line noise problems (it's the only place that gives me line noise, too),
and Uniterm keeps locking the modem out, such that I have to reboot in order
to use the modem again.

This is highly annoying.

Is there anything that I have set up incorrectly with Uniterm?

My system is a Mega 2 mono system with TOS 1.4 currently.  I have the buffers
set to 5KB RS232, and larger than standard buffers for everything else.
Whatever I type before I reboot is sometimes (can't remember if it's always)
sent to the modem after Uniterm is loaded again.

This happens when UniTerm receives a Xoff (^S) Character. Now the program
waits for the following Xon (^Q) before continuing.
In this case you need to reset the terminal (<ALT>+<F7>) to clear the ^S-
status.

I'd much prefer having a special function on the menu-page to clear the
^S-status, and therefore not loosing the contents of the history-buffer
and any additional settings I might have done...

Simon are you listening?
